Re: Tyre analysis and how they're effecting different driver

Good opening post. :thumbup: I'm one of the people who's not enjoying this season as much as some of the others. I understand that it's unpredictable and exciting, for us, but I don't think we really see the fastest driver/car win. These are a few of my issues: 1) First, with a limit on the number o...

Re: 7th in 7?

At the moment, I'd be content if Michael just had a nice, clean race with no incidents. Why are fans just putting the jynx on him? It's tough times for us and Schumacher himself taught me: "I rather be pleasantly surprised than bitterly disappointed."

Team Boss- Who's the best?

It's very common to know who the most likable drivers are. I was just curious to find out who the most likable chap on the pit wall is?

Specially, after Mr.Domenicali decided to prove that he can be quite a turd.

I feel, Brawn should take this followed closely by Sauber.

Alonso, Vettel, Hamilton and Button are going to amass a lot more wins in the coming years. Also, the crop ...
